SunRay server in zone

Can i install SunRay Server in a non-global zone?

Someone please do something about this. SRSS in zones is a non-negotiable requirement to participate in future of desktop virtualisation, etc.

Issue with configuration of another sunray server on same network

Hello,
I'm wondering whether it's possible to have another sun ray environment in the same network next to another.
I'm trying to setup a test environment to do some testing, but after installing the server the only server displayed in the test sunray webGUI is the production sunray server. Luckily I cannot do anything with it, because if I could do actions with the production server from the test server that would be a huge security issue.
Kind regards,
J

Just FYI, a sunray server array will have a group signature that is shared amongst other members in that array. If a new sunray server is setup with a different group signature, they should not care about eachother.

Standby server time zone - sync-up with primary

As we are running our database with physical standby database - Oracle 10.2.0.3, O/S RHEL4 ES
now the primary database server time zone is set to EST Time Zone and Standby database server is set to PST time Zone
We would need to Sync-up standby time zone with Primary database server (EST)
and also the standby server is having 2 instances,
1. standby instance
2. independent instance
We are running rman for both the instances in standby server
as part of this time sync, we need to bring down both the instances then reset the time zone in standby server as primary and bring both the instances up and run the rman backup.
is this fine.
Please let us know if this is fine or do we need to perform anything more.
Thanks,
AJ

Please see the attached screenshot, which is of the last page of the Sync Setup process. It says to backup your Sync Key, and it offers a Print ... button and a Save... button. The correct Sync Key is necessary to recover your data, it is the encryption / decryption key. Sorry, without it your data is useless.

Sunray unit connected to Linux Sunray server and Solaris Sunray Server

Hi,
Currently, I work in a development environment where there is two Sunray servers.
One server is running on Linux ubuntu and the second one is running on Solaris.
In order to connect to the wanted sunray server, the dhcp server is configured with the list of the mac address of the sunray units. So one sunray unit connects always to the same sunray server.
I would like to know if it is possible to have the two sunray server available from one sunray unit. And make the choice of sunray Server in function of the sun card inserted in the sunray unit.
- from my sunray unit A, if I insert my sun card AC I can open a session on the Linux server.
- from my sunray unit A, if I insert my sun card BC I can open a session on the Solaris server.
Thanks

You can do this by using an SRSS feature called "Automatic Multi-Group Hotdesking", or AMGH for short. For details read the "Regional Hotdesking" section in the SRSS Admin Guide and the manpages for utamghadm, ut_amgh_script_interface, ut_amgh_get_server_list and ut_amgh_free_server_list, and/or read the AMGH entries in [Bob Doolittle's blog|http://blogs.sun.com/bobd/].

Vdi 3.1 troubles with sunray server

hi
i'm not able to restart (warm or cold) sunray services from the webui (logged in as root) and the sunray server itself react not as expected (the sunray client stands on 26 D)

Would probably need to see your VDI instance cacao log file to see why this is failing, but you might need to add the following to [libdefaults] section of your krb5.conf file, for 2008R2 AD server:
default_tkt_enctypes = rc4-hmac
default_tgs_enctypes = rc4-hmac
And then restart VDI services (/opt/SUNWvda/sbin/vda-service restart)
Note that VDI will actually try to query individual AD servers as defines as part of your AD Global Catalog when it tries to lookup AD domain data. This means you need to verify that your global calalog referenced servers are valid and having matching forward and reverse DNS information:
For example:
$ *nslookup -querytype=any gc.tcp.vdi.com.*
Server:          win2008.vdi.com
Address:     192.168.1.100#53
gc.tcp.vdi.com     service = 0 100 3268 win2008.vdi.com*.
$ nslookup win2008.vdi.com.
Server:          win2008.vdi.com
Address:     192.168.1.100#53
Name:     win2008.vdi.com
Address: _192.168.1.100_
r$ nslookup 192.168.1.100
Server:          win2008.vdi.com
Address:     192.168.1.100#53
100.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa     name = win2008.vdi.com.*
You'd want to verify that every record returned by the *nslookup -querytype=any gc.tcp.yourdoamin.com* command refers to a server that can be reached and has matching forward and reverse DNS. Otherwise, this may trigger VDI to have failures or delays in performing directory queries.
Beyond that, you need to look in the cacao.log file for errors that you can find and post.

How to configure polish keyboard on SunRay Server Software

Hi all
I have a anoying probem with Sun USB Keyboard working on SunRay.
I've installed SunRay Server Software 3.1 on RedHat ES
Everything works fine but the keyboard on terminal client. Keyboard pluged into the server (RH ES) works good, i can press ALT+key to see polish letter, but it doesn't work when i log in from SunRay terminal. Even xmodmap on server shows different logs than on terminal. It is like client can't see the polish layout and keyboard type. I think it takes default from somewhere.
Is there any other file to confgure layout different then xorg.conf? Maybe in /opt/SUNut ?
I was trying to configure it through setxkbmap but I get error: "XKB extension not present on :11.0"
Have no clue to solve that problem...Can anyone help me?
thanks in advance!

Sorry, Dariusz but your issue is not a hardware issue.
Operating Environment locale and its influence on a keyboard mapping is 100% a software issue.
You might consider posting your question to one of the OS forums.
However, since you are not using Solaris or JDS, there may not be any answer for you here.
I do not see the Sun Ray software as qualified for CentOS
http://www.sun.com/software/sunray/index.xml
If you have purchased the Sun Ray License(s) to use the software beyond the 90 day evaluation period, then you can contact Sun's technical support and open a service case.

Hi Francisco
If you are trying extend the validity of the resource, then as you said that you tried extending the resource by extending the General data tab, and the validity of the resource still remains till 12.2010.
The validity of the resource if governed by a couple of things :
Validity as defined in R/3 Work center under capacity tab in the APO resource tab
In CFC9, you can define what should the validity of the resource be, when you are CIFing the resource.
Moreover, as you have righlty read in various posts across the forums, you can use the report /SAPAPO/CRES_CAPACITY_LENGTHEN to extend the validity of the resource. But I am not sure how are using this report. Please type in se38, enter this report and execute. In the next screen, enter the version, the resource and the location at which the resource exists. Click on execute and validity of the resource should increase.
Let me know if it helps.
Rgds, Sandeep

Sunray Server Software 1.3 and Solaris 9

Any idea when Sunray Server 1.3 will be supported on Solaris 9? I'm a bit surprised that there haven't been any patches released yet, Solaris 9 has been out for a while now...

Hi there,
as far as I know, 1.x will never be supported on Solaris 9, but the upcomming 2.0 will.

SunRay Server 1.3 - SmartCards

Apologies in advance if these are silly questions.
I'm looking at a SunRay server 1.3 installation currently and the Schlumberger MicroPayFlex card is used for login to a session. I believe it is set up with standard functionality - it reads a number off the card and associates the number with the session, therafter identifying that session from the card number at any terminal, while the session is still open.
I would like to introduce a different smartcard e.g. Gemplus MPCOS but retain the same functionality and procedures.
My questions are:
1. Are other smartcards supported in v1.3 without the need to write code ? i.e. can I buy some Gemplus MPCOS cards, make some small administrative change and continue operating as usual ?
2. If there is a new .cfg file required (that doesn't come as standard) what goes into the .cfg file - the ATR of the card ?
Thanks in advance

You should plan to move off 1.3, it's ancient.
1. Are other smartcards supported in v1.3 without the
need to write code ? i.e. can I buy some Gemplus
MPCOS cards, make some small administrative change
and continue operating as usual ?1.3 supports a handful of card types including MPCOS. 'man -M /opt/SUNWut/man utcard' is the place to start.
2. If there is a new .cfg file required (that doesn't
come as standard) what goes into the .cfg file - the
ATR of the card ?A smartcard .cfg file contains much more than an ATR. Its contents are a program written in a smartcard-specific stack-based language. If your new card is similar to one of the supported cards then you might be able to figure out how to derive a new .cfg file from an existing .cfg file. Otherwise you could try opening a support case with Sun, although it's extremely unlikely that they would deliver any enhancements to 1.3. Did I mention how ancient 1.3 is?

Sunray Server Sizing - Solaris x64

Hi,
Where can I obtain information on how to size a Sunray server running on x4170 hardware for CPU and memory in a pure kiosk configuration where the Sun connector redirects the session to a XP VM? Currently I base my config on 20 - 35 users per CPU core and 256MB ram per user. Also with network configuration as in how do I team NIC's together using Solaris 10 for the above configuration, is it needed or what are the best practices.
Thank you.

On the SunRay wiki are some sizing examples. Memory is the crucial part, they say.

SQL Server Time Zone settings

Hi Folks,
I am looking for some help on how we will handle time zone setting in a SQL Cluster. We currently have a six node SQL cluster with multiple instances running on it. I have been asked to supply a new Instance for a new project but the problem
is the users that will be using it are based in New Zealand and We are located in Dublin! They will be using a Dynamics Navision database on this Instance. So my question is can I set the time zone different on this new Instance to their time,
cant seem to find any details this. Most of the documentation seems to indicate you use the datetimeoffset feature or its usually handled within the Application. I am hoping its the latter but any help on this would be grateful, especially if somebody
had experience with the issue before.
Thanks
TD

That's quite the time difference, hope you're not on-call ;)
SQL Server doesn't maintain it's own time, it just inherits it from Windows, so in this case you'll have to leave the time as-is and allow the app to handle it. I've previously worked with navision over two time zones (only a one hour difference though) and
I believe it maintains dates in UTC.
Just be careful that any custom code you run in SQL Server jobs, etc also uses UTC.
Edit: The
Nav datetime is stored in UTC
A DateTime is stored in the database as Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

Cleaning /tmp on a SunRay server

Hello,
I'm running a server with 70 SunRay units, used by a different group of users every week. Mostly. Some stick around for a few months, but the majority are here for a week at a time. The /tmp directory gets littered quickly with files related to SunRay usage. We're also using Sun's GNOME 2.0 desktop environment, which creates /tmp files. Some of the files in /tmp should not be deleted, since they will cause the SunRay units to go into a "transient state", where they have an IP address, but no graphics data is arriving from the server. The screen will display only a blue box containing the IP and MAC addresses, a status code, etc, and it will float around the screen like a screensaver. The same thing appears to happen after about 30 days, to random SunRay units, if no files from /tmp are deleted. I am trying to determine which files, if deleted, will cause the floating blue box of death, and which ones I should nuke to maintain stability.
Here are some examples of files from /tmp that I'm not sure when or if to erase:
-rw------- 1 root other 352 Aug 30 15:07 .Xauth.Aay8j
drwxrwxr-x 2 root root 1536 Sep 28 14:28 .X11-pipe
-rw-rw-rw- 1 root other 0 Aug 10 18:11 X101
prw-rw-rw- 1 root other 0 Sep 28 08:25 X11
prw-rw-rw- 1 root other 0 Sep 28 08:39 X12
-rw-rw-rw- 1 root other 0 Sep 27 20:39 X13
drwxrwxr-x 2 root root 1536 Sep 28 14:28 .X11-unix
srwxrwxrwx 1 root other 0 Sep 28 01:25 X10
srwxrwxrwx 1 root other 0 Aug 10 18:11 X100
srwxrwxrwx 1 root other 0 Aug 10 18:11 X101
What is a good way to tell if the .Xauth* files, and the files in the .X11-unix and .X11-pipe dirs, are still in use or are from a now non-existent X session?
-rw-rw-rw- 1 root other 1388 Sep 28 01:26 .dcs.robson:10.37dd79
srwxr-xr-x 1 jbullock 03frg304 0 Sep 23 07:03 jpsock.140_03.12710
-rw------- 1 jbullock 03frg304 49 Sep 23 06:58 sh12690.2
There are dozens of .dcs* and sh* files. What are the .dcs*, jpsock.* and sh* files for, and when is it safe to nuke them?
Many thanks,
Brent

i had the "Mailbox is on a different server" error too recently (mine shows up in ms outlook express) - and believe my problem came from having the hostnamealiases space delimited instead of comma separated (with no spaces, e.g. "foo.host1.com,bar.host2.com") - comma delimited, no spaces seems to be required ...
i am having a different problem now though:
i can login to communications express hosted domains via -
the main host url using credentials like: [email protected]/passwd
but when going to any of the hosted.com's urls, and trying to login without the @hosted1.com in the user - i get redirected to access manager (and subsequently can't login using either uid or [email protected] at the hosted1.com/uwc url).
here's what i have in AMConfig.properties:
com.sun.identity.server.fqdnMap[mail.hosted1.com]=mail.actual.org
com.sun.identity.server.fqdnMap[mail.hosted2.com]=mail.actual.org
com.sun.identity.server.fqdnMap[mail.hosted3.com]=mail.actual.org
here's what i have in uwcauth.properties:
virtualdomain.mode = y
mail.actual.org.isvirutalhostname=mail.actual.org
i have also added the cookiedomains in amconsole under service configuration --> platform - in addition to creating directories (hosted1.com, hosted2.com, hosted3.com) under /opt/SUNWuwc/WEB-INF/domain - containing the original files and directories under /opt/SUNWuwc/WEB-INF/domain (i was not clear if these directories should take this form e.g. including the .com or if they should just contain the domain-name --e.g. hosted1?)
i can receive hosted email via pop using uid [email protected]/passwd, etc.
thanks for any input.

Changing BO Server Time Zone

Hello,
When we refresh report and displa last refresh date in it, the date/time displayed is GMT. We want to display US EST. We want to do this as server level as opposed to having each user change it from their preferences.
Our BO server OS is Linux and our Linux team has changed the BO server box time zone to US EST, But we still see GMT. We are on BO XI R3 SP2 FP2.5 and web server is Netweaver. BO and web server are installed on the same box.
What are we missing?
Thanks,
Nikhil

What is the time zone set on the Web and App servers?
If you go InfoView and CMC preferences, you should see the Time Zone field. What is the value in that?
In the Web and App server if it is set to EST, make sure you have time zone set to Default - Local to web server in CMC and Infoview preferences.

Migration from physical server to zone (solaris 10)

Hello all,
I found an old thread about the subject Migrate Solaris 10 Physical Server to Solaris 10 Zone but i have a question.
Using the flarcreare command, will add to the flar archive all the zpools i have in the server?. Right now we have 14 zpools.
If i execute this command "flarcreate -n "Migration File" > -S -R / -x /flash /flash/Migration_File-`date '+%m-%d-%y'`.flar" will take all the zpools?
This is for migrating from a E25k Server to a M9k Server
The E25k (Physical Server) have this release "Solaris 10 10/08 s10s_u6wos_07b SPARC" and the zone server (M9k) have this release "Oracle Solaris 10 8/11 s10s_u10wos_17b SPARC" this could be an issue?
Thanks for any help.
Edited by: 875571 on Dec 9, 2011 7:38 AM

flarcreate will only include data from the root pool (typically called rpool). The odds are that this is what you actually want.
Presumably, on a 25k you would have one pool for storing the OS and perhaps home directories, etc. This is probably from some sort of a disk tray. The other pools are likely SAN-attached and are probably quite large (terabytes, perhaps). It is quite likely that instead of creating a multi-terabyte archive, you would instead want an archive of the root pool (10's to 100's of megabytes) and would use SAN features to make the other pools visible to the M9000.
One thing that you need to do that probably isn't obvious from the documentation is that you will need to add dataset resources to the solaris10 zone's configuration to make the other zpools visible in the solaris10 zone. Assuming that these other pools are on a SAN, the zpools are no longer imported on the 25k, and the SAN is configured to allow the M9000 to access the LUNs, you will do something like the following for each zpool:
# zpool import -N -o zoned=on +poolname+
# zonecfg -z +zonename+ "add dataset; set name=+poolname+; end"In the event that you really do need to copy all of the zpools to the M9000, you can do that as well. However, I would recommend doing that using a procedure like the one described at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01/html/821-1448/gbchx.html#gbinz. (zfs send and zfs recv can be used to send incremental streams as well. Thus, you could do the majority of the transfer ahead of time, then do an incremental transfer when you are in your cut-over window.)
If you are going the zfs send | zfs recv route and you want to consolidate the zpools into a single zpool, you can do so, then use dataset aliasing to make the zone still see the data that exists in multiple pools as though nothing changed. See http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01/html/821-1448/gayov.html#gbbst and http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01/html/821-1460/z.admin.task-11.html#z.admin.task-12.
